I’m not trying to say they are perfect, or even good. I’m comparing them to Apple and Microsoft, which have bricked 5 year old products.But only after the event when the reaction was entirely predictable. And they failed to learn from it, because if they had they would have avoided the v2 to v3 transition trouble.
Based on this reporting they were pushing for the launch of the eagerly anticipated new product, which needed v3, and ignoring the engineers actually working on the software who were shouting and screaming in meetings that it wasn't ready for release.
I am one of the lucky Sonos users who were inconvenienced rather than disabled. I quickly found SonoPad and started promoting it. The only function I’m missing is the ability to create and edit playlists.
I’ve looked and looked for an alternative, but my primary streaming sources are XM and Audible.
